As I said, the hip hop was very well received so I'll be revisiting it next week for sure. If anyone has any preliminary requests feel free to post them and I'll throw them in.

I also want to reiterate the Pesticide Free Parks campaign being put on by the Coalition for a Healthy Calgary. Right now, as far as I know, calgarys only city park that isn't sprayed with cosmetic pesticides is New Edinborogh Park thanks to the Sunnyside Community Association. But we're close to having a bylaw passed banning the use of them citywide. The Standing Policy Committee of Utilities and Environment will vote on whether to send the pesticide-ban bylaw to city council for ratification on June 25th. Make sure you let your alderman know how you feel about the issue, by calling 311 or 268-2340.

Calgary is the largest city in Canada without a ban, its time to change that.

ARUSHA!

Soapbox Derby is sponsored by the awesome folks down at the ARUSHA CENTRE - a collectively run, member-supported organisation that provides resources and programming on local and global social justice issues.

We think it's a great fit, and we're truly honoured to have the support of Arusha. THANKS!

LISTEN!

We think we do a pretty swell radio show, and we'd like for you to listen to it. "The derby" airs from 9-11am MST on Thursdays - but you can listen to all kinds of outstanding programming on CJSW 90.9fm, 24/7.

Use your grampy's transistor radio if you live in southern Alberta, or tune into live streaming audio in a multitude of formats, from anywhere in the universe, right here.

WE'RE ALL EARS...

Do you need to hop up on the soap box? You can drop us a line right here. We welcome comments, requests, suggestions, and information on whatever conscious stuff you've got going on.
